Abstract

Social work practice in Ghana involves the use of group work as a method of providing services for clients. However, not much Ghanaian literature exists on group work. This provides a narrative of a group worker’s facilitation of a support group for persons living with HIV/AIDS to highlight the lessons learned from the experience.
